Pro-Tip
Before creating a patient consider if the patient may already be a patient of another whiteboard user. If you think they might be and you are interested to share data on the patient consider searching for the patient first and requesting a share for that patient. When requesting a patient share you will create a patient for your users with only the patients identification details (even before the share is accepted).
